Other countries may be different, but in the US saying "you will be sued"
can be considered a threat of imminent suit; saying "you may be sued" is
only informational. Even better is usually to say "doing this will violate
the license terms" and leave it at that; most people really do want to
comply. Heck, probably half the people using the GPL and LGPL haven't really
read them anyway.
(I am not a licensed lawyer/solicitor but have spent a lot of time working
with them on software agreements, contracts, and IP matters.)
Later,
